The Best World War II Action and Horrific Photos

World War Stories- World War II was one of the deadliest wars of the world. The casualty
statistics vary to the highest degree with an estimated total dead ranged from
60 million to over 79 million. Civilians killed totaled from 40 to 52
million, and 13 to 20 million from these deaths were from war-related diseases
and famine. For the Military alone it is estimated from 22 to 25 million and
that includes deaths in captivity of about 5 million. Nobody wants to repeat
another global war, but sometimes when a country is tempted to use their might
to take territories terrible things could possibly stir another military
conflict. China
is now claiming that the vast south-China sea is theirs, they said that they have
historical evidences to prove their claim. However other claimants have the
same evidences too and if this kind of conflict cannot be settled
diplomatically it could raise military tension.
There were reports that most countries who have claims to the islets in South China Sea are gearing up to protect their sovereignty. China wanted to
settle the problem diplomatically, but they kept telling other nations to stay
out from their territory (South China Sea), do you think it is fair? That is not
the way to settle things diplomatically.
World War 2 in Europe started the way China did, when Hitler was
confident enough that he had the military, the navy and power to crash small
countries, he told the world that Poland was theirs and he wanted it
back. The UN should not shrug off this issue like what
other countries did before Hitler started his Blitzkrieg (Lightning War)
and sparked the 2nd World War.

The UN should try calming the tension and make some sort of agreement that
all claimants would get a fair share or maybe bring the issue to the
international court and solve the issue peacefully, just like what Che Guevara did for Cuba. But how the issue can be brought to the
International tribunal when some permanent members of the UN Security Council (France,
the Republic of China, the Soviet Union, the United
Kingdom and the United States) are involved in the
conflict and not only that they also have their own separate differences. Have you not noticed that most of these
countries are involved in countless wars in the past? Our UN
Security Council members are the superpowers we thought have the strength to maintain the peace of our world, but instead of
encouraging peace they feed most of the small countries in South China Sea with weapons to defend themselves. Where
do you think all these military build-ups in South East Asia would lead to?

Here are some of the best World War II pictures that I collected online, I don’t know who took these pictures, but anyways I hope it would open our minds and hearts that war
would bring us only death and destruction. Who ever took these marvelous
images they had seen the horror of World War II and the courage of every
soldier who fought for freedom and survival.
When there is War it is the people who suffer most and not the one who is
initiating it. It is the people who will die first and not the leaders. In World War II, Hitler did not die in pain
like the ones he killed and massacred, he died by his will. The emperor of Japan
did not die like the ones they beheaded in Nanking,
or like those killed by the Atomic explosions, he died by old age. Kim Jong-il of North Korea did not die like those
in the Korean War, he died by his illness.
Do we have to be idled always when our leaders are trying to spark a
war?

Red army charging! A remarkable photo of Russian courage!

This is a remarkable photo of Russian victory

German
soldiers were the best in training and in firepower and foremost they
were well-disciplined. Many Germans killed were as young as 18 years
old, innocent and full of dreams. Just because their leader wants power
they are the ones suffering to get it.

This is the best German offensive photo.

This is the Best ambush preparation photo of the German army

When
Americans joined the War, it was like sending high school kids to
college. America's military leaders were not fully aware what horror
awaits their soldiers. But their superb intelligence and training
equipped their men to survive and defend their foxholes at all cost.

This is the most historic photo of American courage under fire.

Japanese
entered the War with a good intention for the Asian people, but
intentions and dreams should not be dealt through War. Here are some
photos of Japanese army during horrors of World War II. Japanese forces
as what we knew from many history books are brutal and cruel, but you
are wrong. All soldiers during the war were brutal, war is war. Here
are some pictures that show Japanese brutality and kindness.

These
photos may look meaningful and full of messages on how difficult to
live during the dark years of World War II. Who ever the victors, still
they could not remember the event without tears in their eyes. The War
wrapped every nation with Death, sadness, depression, poverty, hunger
name it, almost every word that would describe the face of War is not enough to express the sacrifices and agonies of the
people who were there. Now, we have great powerful countries and most
of these countries have participated the second great war, but still
they are making ways to use WAR as the solution for their political
differences. War is defined in two words only -- DESTRUCTION AND
DEATH. Let us pray for peace always. It is not reasonable for a country
to declare WAR and kill millions of people just for the word FREEDOM.. It is
unfair!

Many of the photos from the USSR were actually staged photos. Including the one of the raisin of the flag over the Reichstade, which was a redo of the original taken some two weeks before only this time using a much larger flag.
